About This Home

As of July 2025

Historical one of a kind piece of local history in Tuscarora.
This 6 BR log / stone beauty nestled right in the center of Tuscarora boasting tons of local history. Once home to a hotel , bar and local store. The home also has colonial Pine plank throughout as well as original hardwood floors adding to its beauty, hidden gem- part of the old baroom remains. The front porch boosts ornate woodwork, and inside you will find long hallways, a beautiful staircase and many signs of the past.
This home is 10 minutes from both Tuscarora State Park and Locust Lake state Park and both parks have lakes, boating, fishing, hiking , kayaking and swimming. Locust Lake has camping as well.
With only 10 Minutes to Tamaqua ( Route 309) and 20 Minutes to Pottsville ( Route 61) commuting any direction is easily accessible. While this historic beauty needs some TLC, and is being sold "AS-IS" it holds over a century of history within. There is plenty of potential in so many directions and the home is located within the Tamaqua School District giving graduates a 2 year LCCC Program through scholarship.
